Glad to see you enjoying this so much! This is about their relationship with the music industry and the dirty tricks they play on artists.

The next track, Second Skin is the holy grail of The Chameleon’s UK. OK, THEY ALL ARE!

Oh man get ready for Second Skin.

Justin, You'll cry before the end of the album ! Goosbumps and sparkles , here they are The Chameleons ! Mark is a wizard ! And I dedicate this melody to U !

The Chameleons actually played for me in Stockton on Tees last Sunday ❤ we had a great crowd in. Their music is timeless.

Yes, JP, it's one of THOSE albums.

" Script of the bridge " I could listen to this LP every single day of my life EVERY

This album is legendary Justin, great reaction and I really hope you continue

I always loved their guitar interplay, it creates such a unique atmosphere.

Justin this album is amazing, i did request This band a while back but I never thought Youd actually do them. Its such a GREAT ALBUM and Strange Times is an even better album. Second Skin is one of the best songs ever!

This album I played to death when it came out as there was absolutely nothing else like it at the time. Had the pleasure of seeing them 2 weeks ago in Glasgow on the 40th anniversary tour of Script of The Bridge. They still have it. Second Skin up next.

SOOOOOOO Happy to see you digging this amazing album. It hit me like a ton of bricks at the time.... and still does. EASILY makes my Top 20 albums of all-time. The twin guitars with their hypnotic chiming metronome really hit me in the soul... and paired with the great rhythm section... and Mark's haunting voice... makes for a perfect mix. They were a comet... three fantastic albums... and out. (For a while. They came back and did some wonderful things.) LOVE IT! Looking forward to you experiencing "Second Skin"... considered by a lot of fans to be their best song. Cheers, Justin. P.S. - At some point you'll have to check out their work after they split up. The two guitarists (Fielding and Smithies) formed a mostly instrumental band called THE REEGS... Very cool stuff... and Mark and John were in THE SUN AND THE MOON. Mark also did some solo albums that were quite good: "Zima Junction" and "Paradying" (w/ Yves Altana) So many great songs to go through!

I love this album, also the Icicle Works debut album has some amazing tracks on it and you should listen to that.

I knew you'd like it because we have the same taste in music! There are many more great Chameleon songs to come...

Keep going!

It's great to see someone talented from your generation appreciate something I've liked since age 20. My nieces 35 and 45 don't like my music and I'm only ten older, 55. Thanks SF Nancy for the tape u gv me Berkeley marina, we listened to w/ real fog horns behind us. I was a big music guy and Chame- LEONs were not on the radio! At all! On the tape's B side was the Bolshoi LP "Lindy's Party" almost as good...

total classic.

Always loved Burgess lyrics, i cant believe i was in Uni at Manchester in thevmid 80s and never saw them live. Script is a great album, but i suggest you also go to What does anything mean? Basically, Strange Times and The Sun and The Moon.

I’m loving how much you’re loving them! Keep going, I can’t to watch more! 😊

Really pleased you are listening to this fabulous album, it is one of the greats. I have four copies of this, 2 vinyl, 2 CD, I bought it when it first came out after reading a music press review; it lived up to the hype 100%. The next track will blow you away (as you move forward in order as you do). You'll reflect perhaps (by the end) that they often do songs in two halves - which is a great idea. The Chameleons are one of the greatest bands most people have never heard of. When they do finally discover them they have that gut-wrenching feeling that they've missed out for the last 40 years. I'm getting on a bit now, maybe in my autumn before the winter? I need a mad surge of youth! I'll watch you Justin, reacting to the songs on this album!

ANOTHER masterpiece off a masterpiece! Script of the bridge is my second favourite album of all time. C

It will always baffle me why this band doesn’t get more mainstream recognition. They’re a cult secret thing, but their sound, their songwriting, is so masterful and accessible. They’re not “difficult”, they’re just obviously excellent. The third album Strange Times is, IMO, their peak. More of those dynamics and builds, lovely melodies and perfect production from Dave M Allen (producer of most of The Cure’s 80s records)

A stunning track.

We should be talking about the Smiths , the Cure and the Chameleons , in the same breath , but for some inexplicable reason , they never hit the big time….

If you like Chameleons I would give a strong recommendation for The Sound. Their first three albums are great but I would start with their second album From the Lions Mouth.

Don't bother about separating them! Get straight into Second Skin please

By the way: LOVE the "The Good Place" shirt!! ha ha... Such a great series!

I'll be buying this one when/if I see it Also, tomorrow/October needs to be heard on yer channel When u play it I'll be16 again. U2JP maybe? Many happy returns of the day. PENBLWYDD HAPUS JUSTIN 🎉

I liked the coda but other than that I think it’s a step backward from the first two tracks. I’m ready to hear more, though.

My man hates the beginning of that song 😂😂😂 he doesn't get it

Until the chorus, someone could have told me this was a David Bowie tune and I would have bit on it. I thought the tune was alright.

Kaif

JP i don't want to disappoint you, but, yes the first 4 tracks are amazing, masterpieces... BUT the rest of the album is only good to great songs...

Amazing track and this is always my favourite Chameleon track that goes on the loop in my house. This song screams 80s to me and everything great about that decade. How they didn't make it is a crime against music.
